Los Angeles CA. The Los Angeles Times endorsement of sitting California Judges has sparked a formidable challenge to the judicial candidates. Those wishing to seek the highest office of Judges are being challenged to prove their integrity by acknowledging the receipt of and pledging not to accept illegal payments in the future.

COURT CRITIC CHALLENGES JUDGES TO DEBATE

Dr. Richard I. Fine a former U. S. Prosecutor who was recently released (video) from the Los Angeles County Men's Central Jail after 18 months of solitary "coercive confinement" for accusing Superior Court Judge David Yaffe of being "on the take" while sitting on cases that involved L.A . County where the County was a party to the case. Judge David Yaffe took $500,000 over the past twenty-two years in payments ruled illegal by the 2008 decision in Sturgeon vs County of L.A. .

L A TIMES ENDORSED JUDGES

The L A Times endorsed these candidates while ignoring the fact that most, if not all, of them have been given retroactive criminal immunity from prosecution for taking the illegal payments.
